While living at Terra Trace (321 E. 14th St) from 2020-2022 there were a lot of problems but one that should absolutely not be dismissed. I am disappointed that no one seems to realize the seriousness of this. On Aug 17, 2021, my neighbors set their stove on fire. Once I noticed the smoke smell, I went to the hallway to see what was going on and my neighbor explained what happened. They didn't know what to do so I pulled the fire alarm and it did not go off. I had to alert everyone by knocking on their doors to let them know the building wasn't safe and we needed to get out. I was told my claim was false and inaccurate. After some minor internet searches, I found that there was a fire here in 2011 (if I remember correctly) that killed a student. After finding this out, I knew I had to do more. I feel as if this apartment complex needs to be reevaluated for safety of the residents still living there. I will also be willing to provide more information, videos, etc about this incident. Thank you!
This building is missing and has damaged emergency exit signs throughout the complex. Exposed live wires and light fixtures are rampant. The building's emergency system has been beeping an alarm for over two weeks.
There are patients on cots lining the hallways in the back out of sight. It is a fire hazard to have people in the hallway.
Windows in all dorm rooms across IU are bolted shut and I can't see how this is anything less than a major fire safety hazard.
Neighbor appears to be burning trash in am once per week. Thank you.
Per anonymous online complaint made to the Indiana Dept of Environmental Management - A neighbor is dumping large quantities of oil into his back yard. His name is Samuel Cummings. He is running a mechanics buisness out of his driveway and is dumping oil from cars into his backyard and alongside his driveway. This is concerning to me as I wouldn't want my garden or yard polluted. He is also using motor oil when burning trash in a large burn pit in his backyard. There is a foul odor present when he burns trash and the smoke and fumes pollute my backyard and the other neighbors backyard and patio. He has been burning trash and dumping oil for months.
There is a rusting out grill on the west side of the building left here from when the fire department occupied the building. It is presumably broken and seeing as how the city owns the building, and the fire department has left, the city should probably clean that up.
The fire department left a grill behind when they left the old Bunger Robertson building. It needs to be removed. If they don’t have a proper grill at their new location, please contact me so we can donate a new grill. The one they left behind is forlorn.
I was burning leaves today, unaware of the city policy. The fire department came to my house, kindly asked me to extinguish the fire, and informed me about our policy. Even though I had done wrong, they were kind and helpful, which made it a pleasant learning experience for me. I love that in a town this size, people are so friendly and positive. Thank you city of Bloomington.
